Gu Daoist Master

Fang Yuan is no hero. A man defined by his ruthlessness and complete lack of moral restraint, he has spent a lifetime navigating a brutal world where only the strong survive. Through painstaking effort, he refines the legendary Spring Autumn Cicada, utilizing its extraordinary power to cast his consciousness five hundred years into the past. Reborn with centuries of hard-won wisdom, battle scars, and life experience intact, he seizes this unprecedented second chance not for redemption, but to conquer every obstacle standing between him and his ultimate ambitions. The world he returns to is one of profound cruelty, governed by cultivators who harness Gu—mystical creatures born from the natural world—to wield devastating magical power. In this unforgiving realm, survival demands absolute resolve. Armed with his vast knowledge of future events and an unparalleled mastery of strategy, Fang Yuan relies on skill and cunning to systematically dismantle his enemies. He holds nothing back, unburdened by hesitation or empathy, forging a solitary path toward supremacy. To rise above all others in a society built on deception and strength, he must depend entirely on his own formidable power, carving out his destiny as the ultimate master of Gu.
